Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Immediately, Li Ji did not disturb the group of young laborers who were eating in the distance, but quietly watched them finish eating. There was no conflict in the whole process, so he turned and left.

Although Li Ji mobilized a large amount of Jinyisi's power to supervise secretly, he was still a little worried about the corruption that would occur in the "relief for work" process, which would lead to a large number of young and strong laborers being starved to death and even riots.

However, since there is no problem with the group of young and strong laborers at the moment, Li Ji will naturally not show up specially.

Liu Bei, as the master, can just do it bit by bit to win people's hearts.

After resting for a while, Li Ji returned to the carriage and continued on his way towards Wuxian County.

Due to such a delay, it was already late at night by the time Li Ji and his convoy arrived in Wuxian County.

Zhao Yun was originally in charge of the soldiers of Wu County, and just by swiping his face was enough to prove his identity and open the city gate.

However, Li Ji did not return directly to his mansion, but went straight to the government office.

For Li Ji, no matter how luxurious the mansion is, it is just a place to stay. Compared with the government office, it is just a little more comfortable to sleep in. There is no big difference.

And Li Ji still had a lot of official documents accumulated in his hands that needed to be processed urgently, so he simply planned to sleep in the side courtyard of the government office after finishing the processing.

However, when Li Ji passed by the main hall of the government office, he found that there were candlelight and movement in the main hall where the officials had already gone off duty, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

'Could it be that Yuan Tan has progressed to the point where he consciously works overtime at night? '

Li Ji thought to himself, then simply turned around and walked towards the main hall to take a look.

However, when Li Ji walked to the door of the main hall and looked inside, he saw Zhang Fei sitting in the main hall!

However, Zhang Fei, who had been recalled to take charge of Wu County after Li Ji left Wu County to guard against accidents in Wu County's important treasury and granary, was holding a wine jar in his hand and pouring wine into the sky. The smell of alcohol was clearly audible even to Li Ji standing outside the door.

This made Li Ji's face darken almost instantly, and he led Zhao Yun in with big strides and shouted angrily.

"Zhang Yide!"

Zhang Fei, who was so drunk that his eyes were blurred, reluctantly raised his eyelids, looked at what seemed to be two figures approaching, and subconsciously replied.

"Who? Who, who is so bold and dares to call me by my name?"

The furious Li Ji kicked over the table full of delicious food in front of Zhang Fei and said angrily.

"Then Magistrate Qiantang's head has just been taken off the city gate, and you dare to drink alcohol in violation of the law? Zhang Yide, you are so brave!"

Facing the overturned desk, Zhang Fei became furious almost instantly. He suddenly stood up and wanted to tear this rude person apart.

Just as that familiar voice reached his ears again, Zhang Fei suddenly woke up a lot.

Immediately, the dazed Zhang Fei slapped himself hard to dissipate his drunkenness, and then he saw clearly that the people in front of him were Li Ji and Zhao Yun.

"Mr. Zikun? Zilong?"

Zhang Fei was startled for a moment, and then he didn't dare to be angry because his desk desk was kicked over. He quickly stepped forward and smiled broadly.

"Mr. Zikun, your letter said that you expected to arrive in Wu County this afternoon. But you didn't come back for a long time. I thought it was postponed. I didn't expect you to come back so late."

Li Ji still had a sullen face and said coldly.

"Ji also didn't expect that Yide would dare to drink so much, even in the government office. Do you want the lord to open a tavern in the government office to serve Yide?"

"This, this..."

Zhang Fei realized that Li Ji was probably really angry. For a moment, he felt inexplicably timid and spoke quickly.

"Mr. Zikun, please listen to my explanation. I can explain it..."

Suddenly becoming anxious, Zhang Fei instinctively burped.

"I originally wanted to hold a banquet to welcome Mr. Zikun back, but Mr. Zikun has not come back. So the opened wine jar cannot be sealed again, right? I just thought that the wine jar has been opened and cannot be wasted. Ah, so I tasted a little bit, really, a little bit.”

Zhang Fei was afraid that Li Ji wouldn't believe it, so he stretched out his right hand and gestured with his index finger and thumb.

Just by looking at the five or six wine jars placed on the left and right of Zhang Fei, Li Ji roughly guessed what was going on.

The first half of Zhang Fei's sentence may be true, but Zhang Fei's intention is definitely that he was banned from drinking for many days, so he wanted to quench his gluttony in an open and honest way by hosting a banquet to welcome Li Ji.

It's just that Li Ji didn't return for a long time, which actually made Zhang Fei unable to control himself and started drinking!

Naturally, he drank all he could in a short period of time, so he drank enough at once, so that the scene Li Ji saw before his eyes appeared.

"Zhang Duyou, you haven't forgotten the prohibition on alcohol, right?" Li Ji said coldly.

Hearing Li Ji address his position directly for the first time, Li Ji, who had always been calm and elegant in the past, now looked gloomy. Zhang Fei's confidence was inexplicably weakened, and he was a little afraid to say anything.

"If some bandits happen to take advantage of your drunkenness to attack Wu County and burn down the treasury and granary, do you know what the consequences will be?"

Li Ji asked with a bit of hatred for iron.

Zhang Fei loves wine and alcoholism, and Li Ji naturally knows this very well. This is not a big problem, as long as you are not drinking while on official duties. In the past, Li Ji often criticized Zhang Fei on this point, which made Zhang Fei's daily behavior more restrained.

But what Li Ji never expected was that Li Ji, who originally had higher expectations for Zhang Fei, had no choice but to send Zhang Fei back to take charge of Wu County to avoid any accidents.

Moreover, Li Ji reminded Zhang Fei time and time again not to drink alcohol, and Zhang Fei also patted his chest and promised.

Now this scene is happening. How can this make Li Ji not annoyed?
"Once the treasury or granary is attacked and burned, not only will the lord's ambitions and grand plans be reduced to ashes, but also the livelihood of millions of people in Wu County in the coming year will be in question!"

"Director Zhang, do you know the heavy price you may pay for drinking this?"

Li Ji angrily scolded Zhang Fei repeatedly. Zhang Fei, who knew he was in the wrong, did not dare to refute, so he could only grin and apologize with his big mouth.

"It won't happen next time, it won't happen next time?"

"Do you still want a next time?"

Li Ji said angrily.

"It seems that the 'prohibition order' is just the head of the Qiantang County magistrate, but it is not enough to wake up the officials in Wu County, so let's use Zhang Duyou's head!"

"Zi Long!"

"Yes." Zhao Yun responded.

Immediately, under Zhang Fei's incredible eyes, Li Ji pointed towards Zhang Fei and shouted. "Take Zhang Duyou and put him in prison. He will be executed in ten days!"

Zhang Fei said in shock. "Mr. Zikun, do you want to kill me?"

"Put it down."

Li Ji didn't say much. He glanced at the dishes and wine jars on the floor, waved his sleeves and left directly.

Zhao Yun walked up to Zhang Fei and cupped his hands. "Third General, I'm sorry. This is Mr. Zikun's order. I hope you won't disobey it."

Zhang Fei was furious for a moment, his face kept changing, and his chest was rising and falling visibly.

Zhao Yun was also on guard, ready to suppress Zhang Fei's resistance and forcibly suppress him.

Under normal circumstances, it would undoubtedly be very difficult for Zhao Yun to capture Zhang Fei, but now that Zhang Fei was drunk and unarmed, Zhao Yun, who was wearing a sword, asked himself that even if Zhang Fei resisted, he would not be able to restrain Zhang Fei within ten seconds. It's difficult.

What made Zhao Yun a little surprised was that Zhang Fei seemed to have no intention of resisting at all. After being captured, he seemed to be a little sad and said.

"Mr. Zikun actually wanted to cut off my sacrificial flag. I used to protect Mr. Zikun on the battlefield, for fear that he would be even slightly injured on the battlefield..."

This made Zhao Yun open his mouth, and he didn't know what to say.

As someone who often follows Li Ji, Zhao Yun understands that Li Ji may seem elegant and gentle, but in fact his skills can be called decisive and decisive.

If Li Ji really wants to kill Zhang Fei, then Zhang Fei's head must be moved now, and it will definitely not be left until noon tomorrow. Even if someone wants to rob the prison, he will definitely not leave a chance.

The punishment for Zhang Fei was to be imprisoned first and then beheaded ten days later. This was clearly an opportunity for others to persuade Li Ji to keep Zhang Fei, and this was also the choice Li Ji had to make.

The "Alcohol Prohibition Order" was jointly issued by Liu Bei and Li Ji. During this period, officials of all sizes in Wu County were not allowed to drink to avoid causing trouble. Violators were severely punished.

However, Zhang Fei had a heavy responsibility and openly drank alcohol in the government office. Once word of this got out, it would have a great impact on both Liu Bei and Li Ji. Wouldn't the so-called "alcohol prohibition" become a joke.

Therefore, Zhang Fei must be dealt with!

Zhao Yun was helpless and couldn't understand why Zhang Fei dared to drink alcohol despite having such a heavy responsibility, so he had to give a reminder. "Yide, you are drunk. You need to go to the prison to sober up first."

Immediately, Zhao Yun personally took Zhang Fei into prison.

Considering that Li Ji might not be suitable to take the initiative to contact Liu Bei in order to pretend to deal with Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun sent another fast horse with a letter to the refugee camp overnight to report to Liu Bei.

In any case, Zhang Fei is Liu Bei's adopted brother and the No. 003 shareholder who founded the Liu Bei Group. In addition, Zhang Fei is drunk but has not messed up, so his crime does not deserve death!

But when it is necessary to show a sufficiently fair posture, there is no doubt that only Liu Bei's quick return can persuade Li Ji to let go.

The messenger took Zhao Yun's letter and rushed to the refugee camp all night, arriving before dawn.

At this moment, Liu Bei had not yet gotten up. Originally, Liu Bei's personal guards did not want to disturb Liu Bei, but because Liu Bei had ordered that any urgent message, no matter what Liu Bei was doing, must be reported in time.

Therefore, the guards could only shout outside the camp with the letter.

"My lord, there is an urgent letter from Wu County!"

Suddenly, Liu Bei, who had been sleeping deeply, suddenly woke up. The four characters "Letter from Wu County" seemed to touch Liu Bei's nerves instantly.

Immediately, Liu Bei didn't even have time to put on his shoes, so he rushed out and read the letter.

Looking at the contents of the letter, Liu Bei's expression changed, and then he said urgently.

"Prepare your horses, hurry up!" (End of this chapter)
